The theme of the 2016 Met Gala was "Manus x Machina: Fashion In An Age Of Technology". As usual, each celeb interpreted that theme in their own unique way. But, once again, Lupita Nyong'o completely stole the show.

“Once again, it’s on!” Last night’s 21st Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards brought out the naturalistas in a big way! Red carpet slayer Lupita Nyong’o and stylist Micaela Erlanger have hit another one outta the park with this GORG-em-OUS Elie Saab gown. Her braided updo more than compliments this bold print and that skin is as radiant as ever! Within no time, fashion illustrator Josefina Fernandez posted this epicness to Instagram… Viola Davis rocked a fro to top off her white halter Max Mara gown and the natural hair enthusiasts were loving it… me included, of course! Might this be a twist-out… braid-out? *shrugs* I pity the fool who STILL says naturally kinky hair can’t be classy! In an awesome acceptance speech, Viola thanked her husband, daughter and mother, “the people who love me exactly how God made me”. We see you Viola! Photo Credits: Frederic J.

So excited that my girl (yes, MY girl!) Lupita has snagged the top spot on People Magazine’s annual list of Most Beautiful folks… well, celebs. Sure, the argument CAN be made that, in a world of around 8 billion (?), there’s gotta be someone more beautiful than all 50 on this list. Hey, you may even know of one such individual personally. But, let’s be real… they gotta go by people known by most of the world and, well, those people are celebs, right? Back to our story. 🙂 Are we at all surprised that the chocolate red carpet killa has accomplished this? I mean, look at her! She stole our hearts and slayed the red carpet during award season, acquired the Lancôme deal and now this. This woman is just doing it all and with such style, grace and humility, which is no wonder how she claimed the number…

Ohhh… yes! The news dropped on Friday that the fashion “it girl” has signed with high-end beauty brand Lancôme with campaigns beginning as soon as September. But we knew something like this had to be coming sooner or later, no? I mean, besides the fact that her skin is beyond amazing, (as I so eloquently noted in my Lupita “love fest“ some time ago. LOL) she just has this humble presence and quiet beauty about her that is definitely worthy of this major deal. Here’s what Lupita had to say about her decision to join the brand as a celebrity ambassador: “What appealed to me about Lancôme is that they’re not dictating what beauty is,” she said. “What they do supports something that already is — and that was appealing to me, too. It’s what drew me to them. Hopefully it’s a symbiotic relationship — that I benefit from being associated with…
